4 Steps for De-Risking Your Cloud

Eliminate All Identity Risks. Get To Least Privilege and Stay There

Sonrai Dig Identity Access Path for Identity Governance in the public cloud

This is critical in identity governance and the ephemeral nature of your cloud. It's extremely complex to keep track of what has access to what and if that permission is used. Dig maps every trust relationship, inherited permission, and policy for every entity. Identify all excessive privilege, escalation, and separation of duty risks across 1000's of roles, compute instances, and 100's of accounts.

Discover, Classify, Lockdown, and Monitor “Crown Jewel” Data

Sonrai Dig Critical Resource Monitor for Data Governance in the Public Cloud

Sonrai Dig finds all stores and verifies rights. Not just what is accessing it, but everything that can potentially access it. If you have classified your data, Dig leverages that classification. But if you haven't, Dig classifies it for you. For structured and unstructured sources, Dig will learn about what's inside if it’s PII. After we have found it, and classified it, Dig helps you lock it down.

Unify Compliance and Platform Configuration Monitoring

Sonrai Dig delivers a platform for you that is the basis of a cloud security and risk operating model that spans cloud providers, container platforms, 3rd party data stores, and key stores. Data sovereignty, data movement and identity relationships are all monitored and reported to ensure conformance to GDPR, HIPAA and other compliance mandates. Resolutions are coordinated with relevant DevOps teams.
